Answer to Question 1

C
This finding is consistent with the definition of a vesicle.
A nodule is an elevated solid mass, deeper and firmer than a papule, 1 to 2 cm.
A macule is a flat, nonpalpable change in skin colour, smaller than 1 cm.
A wheal is an irregularly shaped, elevated area or superficial localized edema that varies in size.

Answer to Question 2

A
Medicare is a key element of Canada's social safety net. It is Canada's national health insurance system, which uses taxes to finance medically necessary services for all citizens, thus providing free health care to all.
Medicare is not a fee-for-service insurance plan.
Medicare is not a plan in which monies from provincial taxes are used for nursing homes.
Medicare is not a social insurance program for low-income earners.
